Very interesting selection this week.

You have Rivers, Sylvia, Wheatley and White who all trained well and are best 22. Then you have C Johnson and Yze who have been pushing for selection in the last few weeks. On the flipside Davey, Holland and Robertson are all in doubt.

Because there will most likely be a few forced changes I believe DB will try and avoid dropping more than one player so as to not lose some of that momentum we established last week.

In: Rivers, Sylvia, Wheatley, White

Out: Davey (inj), Holland (inj), Robertson (inj), Jamar

Bartram and Bell survive another week.

possible that Cale might miss? He is sick i think?

With those changes, we don't have a single marking, goal kicking forward. I wonder when the list time we played without all three of Neitz, Robertson or Holland was?

I really hope Holland is fit.

You're right, should we play Newton?

With those changes we still have Bate and Miller as tall forwards who could play deeper not to mention PJ and White who can rest forward. Add to that Green, Wonaeamirri and possibly Sylvia who could go forward and I think we'd be in as good shape as any other week.

I think Yze or Sylvia could cover for Robbo. Add Bate and Miller one or both of whom could go deeper, and a resting ruckman and there's no need to play Newton. However I don't know much about St Kilda's defence, maybe playing Newton will stretch their defenders.

St Kilda's defence is not particularly strong. Hudgton will play back and then there is Dempster and the two Fishers who are more running type defenders as well as Gram who doesn't really play on anyone. Having Holland come up will be a massive advantage for us.

Would be provided you got the ball down there quickly and with a bit of height.

If he's manned up by S. Fisher he'll be killed on the rebound

I really hope Holland is fit.

Last year only Holland played round 3 (then disappeared), they all missed 4 and 5 with Neitz returning not very auspiciously against the Power from Port.

I just fail to see what Sandy can do for him at this point. Morton is far above that level of football. He seems neither tired or jaded. How can an 18yo kid not be excited to play senior AFL every week? The Adelaide game prooved this. For the first time he played with a bit of swagger, a bit of cockiness. A goal off one step from 55 metres out and that pass to Bruce were indicative of this. I want him to play 350 games for the club.
Agree..he's shown he's up to it

Very good summation - would like to see Dunne coming into contention as well...

I would like that too.

But just think he needs to have an impact at Sandy first.

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session. BLWNBA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I arrived at around 1015 and the squad was already out on the track. The rehab group consisted of XL, McAdam, Melksham, Spargo and Sestan.

    A couple of intrepid Demonland Trackwatchers headed down to Gosch's Paddock for the midweek Preseason Training Session to bring you the following observations. Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date. We’re already a month into the MFC preseason (if you started counting when the younger players in the group began the campaign along with some of the more keen older heads)
